CreditFlow: End of Day (Europe IG)

IGC European Market: Commentary - Close
  • European € IG primary markets were unsurprisingly quiet given all the recent geo-political turmoil. As a result we only had 4 issuers (1 x Corp, 1 x FIG & 2 x SSA) bringing a collective €2.3bn, via 4 tranches.
  • Italy’s Mediocredito Centrale was the only non-SSA borrower to step forward that hadn’t previously been announced; though it is State owned.
  • There were no trades in Sterling IG, Swiss Franc IG & the Reg S $ market.
  • A breakdown of today’s primary supply is as follows.
    • Corporate
      • Total IG: €500m
      • Avg. tranche size €500m
      • Avg. IPT to Pricing -40bps
      • Avg. cover 13.80 X
    • FIG
      • Total IG: €500m
      • Avg. tranche size €500m
      • Avg. IPT to Pricing NA (covered)
      • Avg. IPT to Pricing -20bps (unsecured)
      • Avg. cover 2.00 X
    • SSA
      • Total IG: €1.3bn
      • Avg. tranche size €650m
      • Avg. IPT to Pricing -1bps
      • Avg. cover 2.48 X
  • Pipeline: As expected, the pipeline cleared & remained light. Only the DMO £ trade remains, which has always been scheduled as potentially next week's business.

  • Mandated yesterday, Vesteda Finance B.V. (exp. Issue rating of A by Fitch), the Dutch institutional residential real estate investor, & guaranteed by Custodian Vesteda Fund I B.V., brought its anticipated senior unsecured Green €500m (wng) RegS fixed rate 4 year. IPTs on the trade were in the area of MS+135. Guidance came in late morning at MS+100 area (+/- 5 WPIR), with an orderbook of €4.5bn (pre-rec). Final terms were set as €500m at MS+95, the orderbook having grown to €6.8bn, at reoffer (pre-rec). Final book good at re-offer was  >€6.9bn. 
  • This is the first issue by Vesteda since its €500m, 8 year from the 30th of April 2024. In 2018 & 2019 it was ‘BBB+’ credit, issuing €500m, 8 yr trades in each of those years. In 2021 it was a ‘A-’ credit & priced at €500m, 10yr. It remained a ‘A-’ credit for its 2024 issue, however, today’s deal is expected to receive an ‘A’ rating - the shortest deal they have ever issued in the public euro markets.

  • Mediocredito Centrale – Banca Del Mezzogiorno S.p.A. (exp. Issue ratings of BBB / BBBH by S&P & DBRS), issued a €500m (wng), 5.5 year (16th January 2032), Social, senior preferred issue. IPTs were in the area of interpolated BTP+70. Book size was published mid day at €1.1bn (inc. €25m JLMs). Final terms were set at €500m at BTP+50 (equiv. to c.MS+87), with books climbing to €1.2bn (inc. €50m JLMs, pre-rec). The deal priced at BTP+50, with final books of >€1bn, good at reoffer (excl. JLMs). 
  • Their last issue was on the 25th of February 2025, when they priced a senior unsecured, €500m, 5yr @ BTP+50. They also issued a single trade in 2024, with a €400m 5yr.
  • While it is classified as a financial, the Italian bank is State owned. Rather than acting as a traditional high-street retail bank, it primarily operates as a public policy instrument designed to stimulate economic growth, particularly by driving investment into Southern Italy (the Mezzogiorno).The bank is 100% owned by Invitalia S.p.A., which is Italy's national agency for inward investment & economic development, wholly owned by the Italian Ministry of Economy and Finance (MEF). The credit is, however, firmly classed as a bank. After all, it takes deposits, operates commercial banking subsidiaries (like BdM Banca), & generates income through standard banking activities.
